About us

Improve the physical environment in your home so that it serves its people functionally, aesthetically, and socially. We offer help with interior design, organizing, or a concerted effort that combines the two.

Trisha has also done carpentry, slip covering, and has managed several remodeling projects, so she is able to advise clients as to what is feasible in those arenas. We have good working relationships with subcontractors from every discipline and are happy to make recommendations as needed. Amy is a chemist who graduated from New College. She has worked in design as well as in organizing; she is also a native plant enthusiast. Additional Contact: Amy Coats.

Janet’s service is exeptional. I was in desparate for help when I was packing again for a long trip and staring at a bed covered with everything I might ever need, plus back ups, and “just in case I might need it items.” Janet took one look at the bed disaster and started asking me questions and then making recommendations and in no time everything I needed was organized logically. As an organizer, she can help you organize any area of you home with thoughtful questions, calm manner, and brilliant results.

I think the fact that Trisha has done a lot of carpentry herself - as well as making slipcovers and owning & running a cabinetry design studio makes her a different breed of designer. She knows what is possible, and she knows how it can be done (in terms of the technical details). She comes up with ideas that work perfectly.
Description of Work: Trisha is a brilliant designer. She has helped me with a lot of functional and aesthetic issues over the years. Recently, among other work, she designed and commissioned some custom shutters in my house that made an enormous difference for a reasonable price.

It went great. I am not a visual person, so I cannot "see" what would look or function better. I just trusted what Trisha told me and I am happy with all of it. Also important is the fact that she understood that I cannot do every possible project at once. She started with the projects that have the most 'bang for the buck' - including the projects that will make my daily life better. I am looking forward to a time in the near future when I can have her help me upgrade some of my furniture. After that: new kitchen design.
Description of Work: I moved and thank goodness Trisha was available to "run the job" of getting my new house ready. She made design decisions, chose subcontractors, and supervised all the work. Now I love my new home!

Great! I never would have thought of the ideas that she presented - and I am so happy to have them.
Description of Work: Trisha has helped me with interior design several times over the years, and honestly I don't remember the exact price. She picked out my flooring and wall color, as well as several subcontractors when I bought my house. She also helped with furniture layout. More recently, she created the plan that I will use as soon as I am ready to remodel my kitchen.

I had Amy help me organize several areas of my home; we made tons of progress in just a few hours. The best part is that all the systems she created have stuck because they make sense for me (for my life, my home, and my way of thinking). She is great at understanding what will function for people and then working within that. In the future, I plan to have her help me with other part of my home.
Description of Work: Organization: Amy worked with me to rearrange a lot of storage areas in my house - and clean out my closet, make my bathroom look and function better. She also helped me get ready for an interview (pick out an outfit for me, a presentation folder for my resume, etc.).
